Yeah that was such a nice thing. And he's right, Conor McGregor should really be doing things like that considering how much money he has and the problems the area has where he grew up. Unfortunately Conor is only interested in his own well being and that's it.

Two professional athletes who are at the top of their field, seeing them walk around like two over weight lager louts who live for the weekend is endearing and why I personally root for them in every fight. Also they appear to be so in touch with normality. Paddy's post fight win speech over Leavitt was the best show of sportsmanship I have witnessed in some time. He is a class act through and through and I tip my hat to the good sir 👏👏

One thing I love about the fighting arts is the genuine humility, a hunger to learn and to put something back. This interview shows exactly that. What fantastic guy the coach is too. Big kudos to all!
That spinning elbow Molly threw was {chef's kiss}.
The great attitude and energy these guys bring is a breath of fresh air they both have it. I'm a fan for life keep up the fookin great work such a lack of class acts like this no doubt we are seeing something special
From now on I will support this duo...these lads are genuine...
You can't help but love paddy and Molly just down to earth people 💯💯
He’s the biggest thing to come out of Liverpool since the Beatles and he deserves every bit of it! Finally the world is getting a taste of what scouser’s are like, they’re genuinely some of the friendliest, funniest people in Britain and they’ll talk you’re ear off if you let them.
What an amazing group. The kids in that area should flock to that gym. I like them even more now

You can not help but smile watching this. My face hurts from smiling haha.
I've never especially been a fan of any UFC-type fighting; I've watched the odd McGregor fight and enjoyed a few recommended ones, too, but the massive egos, forced bravado, self-aggrandizing rants and fake bravado were a tremendous put-off. A few weeks ago, I came across the "doorbell video" of this embarrassed-looking, apologetic scouse lad asking for a bucket of soapy water to clean up the enormous but wet dump his dog had taken on someone's grass. That's when _I_ discovered Paddy "The Baddy" Pimblett, and I'm hooked! I've _NEVER_ seen a more genuine, down-to-earth, thoughtful, honest, caring gentleman and all-around nice guy; juxtaposed with such a brutal sport, where he's a true talent and rising star. I get the impression that he doesn't feel the need to display much of an ego, and most of his rhetoric is piss-taking banter. His pre-fight "smack-talking" last night had me in stitches, and he was the _only_ one to be smiling, joking and shaking hands at the "stare-off". I love listening to him waffle on with himself and seeing his silly antics, and I enjoy watching him do his stuff in the eight-sided ring even more. All this might sound like high praise, but it's well-deserved, and this is coming from a born and bred Manc!!! 😛
Meatball, Paddy! You’re both Champions!!! YESSSSS!!! GOOOO GETTT THEEMMMM!!!!!
Seem like a great bunch over at next gen, wishing them nothing but success
Loved every second of that. x
Next Gen team wish you all the best in the future. & this time next year u will have a UFC title!! ☝️ Molly & Paddy great mate's. All of you.. Good luck 🤞👍👍👏👏💪💪💯💯
As a scouser these guys make me proud, wanting to help people in the area they grew up is about as good as it gets.
These pair are my favourites out there !
0:01 Megan definitely does squats
if only the world has some more real people like these two the world would be a better more enjoyable place.
That Thumbnail makes me feel all Warm and Fuzzy .....and GREEN inside !!!

What paddy said about if he had Connors money shows me his already a champion with or without the belt.

Totally agree that is the one thing that really caught my attention even though people we hear people say things all the time and most people say things for the sake of saying things. But just the way Paddy said it you can feel it’s something that matters to him and he means it. It’s great how him and Molly have been trying to help there community long before they started getting all of this attention. Wishing them all the success for the future. 👌🏼

It’s because us scousers love Liverpool and our people more than anything in this world. We’re the most passionate and patriotic city. So paddy seeing his fellow scousers being fucked over by the Tory government. He feels like he has to do their job for them and help his people out. There’s a reason we say “scouse not English”.

@Alan Wilson that’s decades of shit, like having our own government putting our city on a “managed decline” in the 80s and lying about 97 dead of our beloved scousers. We have united enough as a city as we only have scousers who will back scousers. It’s sort of a “us against the world” mentality. I hate saying that but it’s the best way to describe it. No city is united enough as Liverpool in my opinion. We’re all on the same wave length. It’s why we all have the same political views. And views on other things in fact. We boycotted the sun newspaper from our city. Never be sold again in the in the lands of the pool. We love scousers. But don’t get me wrong. If you don’t have any outdated stereotypes against us. And treat us fairly. We will back you until the end. But if you go against us for stupid lies and stereotypes. We will hate you forever and let you know about it
